I know that it is poor performance to use relative paths when including a file in php. But, is this true for for all paths or just paths relative to the assumed (context) include path? Is this line require '/home/../http/test.php' as fast as this line require '/http/test.php' ...

Is it also considered an "absolute url", although without the prot...
So, after much research on whether or not we should the CEWP or the HTML Field Control on an external facing SharePoint site, we settled on using the Field Control (much thanks to AC). Now, we are having an issue that all the blogs I read say should not be an issue. When we put a relative URL into the HTML Editor and hit OK, it is auto...

I am a beginner to all things css and I've tried repeatedly to position an image(transparent png)over a centered table, but for some reason the graphic won't budge from the upper left corner of the browser. Absolute positioning should allow me to place the element anywhere I want. If someone could help determine what I've done wrong, I'd...
